FAQs
Are these shoes waterproof?
These boat shoes are not designed to be waterproof. While the leather can withstand light moisture, prolonged exposure to water is not recommended. Consider using a water-repellent spray for added protection.
How do I adjust the 360° lacing system?
The laces can be pulled or loosened from the eyelets on either side of the shoe to tighten or loosen the fit around your foot. Once adjusted, tie the laces securely at the front.
What is the best way to clean the non-marking outsole?
Wipe the outsole with a damp cloth to remove dirt and grime. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could damage the rubber.
Can I wear these shoes without socks?
Yes, boat shoes are traditionally worn without socks for a classic look and feel. The leather lining can offer comfort against the skin, but if preferred, thin no-show socks can also be worn.
How long does the break-in period typically last?
The break-in period varies per individual but generally lasts from a few wears to a week of moderate use, allowing the leather to soften and conform to your foot's shape.
What is the difference between the 'Boots' and 'Low Shoes' variants mentioned in sibling products?
The 'Boots' variant likely refers to a higher cut or a more rugged style of footwear, while the 'Low Shoes' or 'Boat Shoe' variant is the specific style described in this guide, characterized by its low profile and slip-on nature.
Troubleshooting
Leather feels stiff
Wear the shoes for short periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet. Applying a leather conditioner can also help soften the material.
Soles feel slippery on certain surfaces
The siped rubber outsole is designed for traction but may perform differently on extremely polished or wet surfaces. Ensure soles are clean from debris.
Water staining on leather
Avoid prolonged exposure to heavy rain or immersion in water. If they get wet, blot excess water and allow to air dry naturally. Use a leather protector spray for added water resistance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These shoes are ready to wear straight out of the box. Ensure the correct size is chosen for immediate comfort. The 360° lacing system can be adjusted to achieve a snug or slightly looser fit.
Compatibility: Suitable for casual wear, travel, and light outdoor activities. Best paired with casual attire such as shorts, jeans, or casual trousers.
Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of the leather, regularly clean with a soft brush to remove dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a damp cloth and allow the shoes to air dry naturally away from direct heat. Conditioning the leather periodically with a suitable leather conditioner will help keep it supple and prevent drying or cracking.
